This blog will be a repository of the postings of a military nature from my other blog and new ones since then, especially about the Malaysian Military in particular. Hopefully such knowledge about the hardworking men and women who tirelessly work for the security of Malaysia will be acknowledged and appreciated in this way.

Praises For Being Fair To The Fairer Sex

A bit dated but it is good to hear praises for our national policies once in a while from foreigners.

PORT BLAIR: Still not ready to have women officers on board, the Indian Navy can take a hint from the Royal Malaysian Navy which has Lieutenant Farah-al-Habshi onboard a warship here for Exercise Milan, a multinational exercise witnessing the participation of 13 navies of the Asia-Pacific region.

The above is just a sample of the news coverage in India. At least we showed that in the Malaysian service, the glass ceiling may be set a little higher or does not exist at all.
